Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The ulcer in the sid of the tongue can be related to a canker sore.
I suggest to use cold compresses and avoid acid foods that can trigger the symptoms.
All your symptoms seem to be related to a flu like infection.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to consult your physician for further evaluation.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
